The Avid Hebel/Gelenkbuchse Elixir 5 is a replacement lever bushing component designed specifically for Avid Elixir 5 hydraulic disc brake levers. Over time, the pivot and joint areas of brake levers can develop play, wear, or unwanted friction, which reduces braking precision and comfort. This small but essential part helps restore the crisp, direct lever feel that riders expect from a well-maintained hydraulic brake system. It is ideal for riders who want to extend the life of their existing Avid brakes rather than replacing the entire lever or brake assembly.
By renewing the lever joint with a fresh bushing, you can improve modulation, reduce wobble at the lever, and regain a more consistent braking response on the trail or road. The Avid Hebel/Gelenkbuchse Elixir 5 is well suited for home mechanics and professional workshops alike, offering a cost-effective way to service and fine-tune your braking setup. Whether you ride mountain, trekking, or everyday bikes equipped with Avid Elixir 5 brakes, this lever bushing helps keep your stopping power reliable, predictable, and smooth for many more rides.
